Good morning fellow ADHDers,
I just read How to ADHD by Jessica McCabe (she has a fantastic YouTube channel as well and I wish I knew this stuff 20+ years ago. So I thought I'd give away copies to my favorite ADHD sub. I'm giving away ten copies in a contest. I've never done something like this before so I'll probably mess it up or go ride bikes and forget, but it'll be up for a week (hopefully pinned), and the replies with the most points get the book.
I'm happy to mail a physical copy, or an ebook or an audio book, your choice. I'm US based so a physical copy may be sketchy outside of the US but lets go for it.
How to get points: Reply and include some or more of the below.
Most upvotes: +1
Second most upvotes: +1
Newest reply when contest closes: +1
Most engagement/replies to a comment: +1
Quirky fake quote from the book: +1
Fake chapter title and summary from the book: +1
Meme of the book: +1
Fake book cover of the book: +1
ADHD character cosplay/art: +1 (dress up as your favorite ADHD person or post art of them, AI art counts!)
Wildcard challenge +1 (create your own challenge and get others to participate)
Unsung hero award +3 (share someone who has been an unsung hero for you and your ADHD challenges)
Have fun, and hope this doesn't become a disaster...! I mean I was supposed to post this on Wednesday, but you know, ADHD....
EDIT: Multiple replies are cool, I'll use a vlookup or something to merge them together!
Does the book have advice for spouses?
It does! It's towards the end but everything in the book up to then is helpful for them as well. I am trying to talk my wife into reading this as well.
After 20 years she has patience for my whatever, but I think this will help her navigate better.
I'll bow out of the competition for someone with ADHD to win. But, thank you for the recommendation, I'm at my wits end sometimes.
The book will help you then. So will the YouTube channel. Your partner can't help it and with the right help it can get better but there is no one size fits all solution.
